TIE oGLETHoRPE CLUBS BAR.
The Question Whether It is Subject to
a Liquor Tax is Raised.

The Question Whether 1t is Subject to
Liquor Tax is Raised.
The question whether the bar at the
Oglethorpe Club is subject to the payment
of a license has been brought before the city
authorities. The club has about 10 men,
bers, and it'retails liquor to them in much
the same manner that drinks are sold in
public places. The Mayor consulted the
proper counsel ON the subject and the
conclusion reached was that the club ought
to pay license to the city for the privilege
of selling its members drinks. The Mayor
addressed letter to the President of the club
informing him of the conclusion arrived at
and asking him to remit to the city the
amount of the license. No reply has been
received, and it is not yet known what DO
sition the club will take in the matter.
1t can, of course, refuse to pay the license
and allow the matter to go to the courts,
and the city would not be displeased if it
should do so. Clubs have main
tanned always and in ali cities, that they
were not subject to a liquor tax. as the bar
is for the use of members only, and is there
fore private The action of the Oglethorpe
will be watched with interest, for if by pay
ing the license it acknowledges itself subject
TO the retail liquor tax, its bar will then come
under the Sunday law, and will be closed
up on that day. If it does not make the ad-
mission the case will be taken into court and
the matter decided there The saloon keep
ers complain that they are forced 10 close
their bars on Sunday, while the bar at the
club is peImitted to remain omen

HE RAISED THE COW.
But He Raised Himself so High that
He Landed in Jail

He Landed in Jail
A few days ago Mack Holaway (colored)
had a fine COW in tow. He showed ]. G.
Zeiper and J. w. +. Hester the fine bovine,
and extolled her excellent qualities. At
last bargain was struck, though it panied
Mack exceedingly to part with his dearly
loved pet, ''as | done raised her, boss u
She was purchased for Sl5 Mack
receiving $40 so and instructions TO
call around in day or two for the balance
Zeiper and Hester kept the COW for several
days, not desiring to kill her just then.
Mack did not make the promised call for
his 81 80 but instead London McNichols,
also colored, slowly ambled up one day and
to the disgust of Messrs. Hester and Zeiper,
declared that that was his COW. He had
raised her from a calf, and the other fellow
had only "raisedn her as Mark Twain did
chickens AS he brought two creditable
witnesses who swore as to his
ownership of the animal, he Sc
cured the COW. Mr.. Hester then came
down to Justice Sheftall's Office and he and
McNichols swore out an affidavit against
Mack. 1t was learned that he was at the
six-mile bend Of the Charleston and Savan-
nah railroad, and officer Nathans rode out
and captured him. When arraigned before
the Magistrate he maintained that he
raised" the cow The Justice thought his
raising was decidedly bad and com
mitted him to Jail to await the
converting of the City Court,
when he can explain to Judge Harden his
method of ''raising'' cows. Messrs. Hesper
and Zeiper are out $40 so, but they have Sc
cured that amount of experience, so they
say they are even.

THE OYSTER SEASON BEGUN.
Some Points About the Life and Habits
of the Biyalye

OF the BlValVe.
"Giye me half dozen raw and small
stew" was the order MORNING News re-
porter heard yesterday as he was dining in
market restaurant. This fully introduced
the r. month, and consequently a dealer
was at once seen as to Savannahs trade in
this delicious nhabitant of the briny deep
Where do the oysters that supply this
market come from? was the first inquiry
made
"Why, from all along the coast, from
Daufusky Island to Doboy. There are good
beds all along the coast and from z, 800 to
1900 gallons of oysters Opened are brought
in weeHy
Further questioning brought out the fol
lowing points: There are several hundred
persons who get their living entirely in the
oyster season by oystering, and they make
fair wages. There are only three or
four firms in the city who
wholesale oysters, and they receive
an average of 500 gallons per day each
during the season, October to April. They
supply nearly all the restaurants in the city,
as the native oyster is finer and cheaper
than either the Florida or northern bivalve.
Besides this they supply an immense de-
mand in interior Georgia, and in Alabama,
Tennessee and other contiguous points.
Boston is about the only port North that
IecelNeS any large dulOuHO Ol OeOfSld
oysters In November large shipments are
made, the oysters being packed in barrels,
after being opened, and forwarded in that
condition. The weather being cool then,
they keep well and fair prices are realized.
This season the oysters are juicier and bet
ter than any time previous at so early a
date. The immense quantity of fresh
water that was poured into the salt creeks,
bays and sounds along the coast, made a
brackish combination that this shell fish
delights in. The result is oysters that please
the epicures. Orders are already coming in
faster than they can be filed. The oysters
at Thunderbolt and Skidaway seem to be
the favorites, and are generally larger and
better filed out Savannahians are gener-
ally good patroniZers of this festive and
popular dish and the restaurants are good
customers of the dealers Altogether the
study of the oyster is very interesting, and
the partaking thereof greatly more SO.

Charleston Glimmers.

Mr.. Stephen R. Bell has returned to
Charleston, after spending nearly five
months abroad. Mr.. Bell sailed for ST. Pc
tersburg, Russia, in April last, by the Brit
ish steamship Cerdic, Capt. j. McKenna,
and after visiting the Russian capital trav-
eled with the Cerdic, visiting Sweden, Den
mark, Italy, Turkey and Russia in the
Black Sea, and returned homo via England.
Lieut.. Abbott, who is in charge of the
jetties, said Friday that about 2,700 cubic
yards of stone were put on the jetties dur
ing the month of August, the continuous
heavy winds and sea preventing any at
tempt at doing work after Aug, II. There
is only about $40, 900 more to be expended
before work will be suspended, it being
deemed best TO reserve the small balance in
hand to make repairs that may be necessary
before another appropriation is made. 1t is
not very likely that the appropriation men,
toned will be available before next July.
Tomorrow will be ''Black Mondayn for
hundreds of school children in Charleston,

children viii not resume their studies until

MODELS FOR THE EXPOSITION.
Savannah Steamships Represented at
the Philadelphia Celebration.

Gen, Sorrel, of the Ocean Steamship
Company, sent to Philadelphia yesterday,
on the Juniata two models of steamships
One represented the steamship Savannah
that was built in 1918 by Savannah firm,
and was the first steam vessel to cross the
ocean-a queer looking craft, with huge I'M
covered paddle wheels hanging over her
sides like old-fashioned water wheels.
The other model Represents the
trim and beautiful steamship City of Sa-
vannaL, one of the handsomest' vessels
afoat They both will be borne in the
grand procession at Philadelphia next
week, when the Quaker City proposes to
celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of
the adoption of the constitution. Certainly
these two models show to great degree the
wonderful progress made since the applica-
ton Of steam navigation.
